Playmates, which is housed on the grounds of Windmill Primary School, was founded in January 1991 and has grown steadily to offer the greatest care and education to kids between the ages of 2 and 5.
We are the child care setting for you if you're looking for a reputable and experienced child care provider who will treat each child as an individual and can collaborate with families and parents.
We collaborate closely with the Windmill Primary School Early Years Team to make sure our kids have the skills they need to confidently start kindergarten.
We have found that the keyworker approach, in which each staff member is in charge of a small group of kids, allows us to make sure that every kid meets and/or exceeds their Early Years Foundation Stage-recommended goals (EYFS).
With the exception of our apprentice, all of our staff members are qualified in childcare to at least level 3 and are regarded as our most valuable resource.
